Happy
Monday gang! Hope your week is off to a strong start! Quite a rough
start for me. It's strange how I'm so used to waking up feeling sick and
having that profound run-over-by-a-truck feeling, but it still feels so
overwhelming. Even my usual happy camper self was doubting if I would
be up to doing anything more than sitting on the couch today... My brain
was screaming "THIS is what you describe to people as doing much
better?! Sorry, dude, but a bad case of the flu would be far better than
how you're feeling today!"
I try not to hit people over the
head with what is a daily battle for me - fighting just to make some
kind of a fruitful day with a body that is far less sick, but still
profoundly affected by illness. No doubt, it gets awfully frustrating.
However, I'm still jazzed...still grateful...and still blessed... Guess
I'm just a rebel!
And the most important thing is that I'm
still in the ring...and despite the hard hits I take every day, I'm
still swinging. And I'm clearly starting to land some pretty good
punches myself. The way I see it, my job is to just keep getting back in
the ring and trust that with prayer and persistence, God's will for my
life will ultimately prevail... And that it ain't over 'til it's over...
